Hilltop Raceway 11-09-2007, 02:52 AM It was just an ol' junker body with most of the chrome worn off. The loud color helps you keep an eye on it going around the track!!! I sprayed the inside of the green tinted windows, with some black paint, to darken them up. I likes the red and black against the yellow. I'm a Chevy man at heart, even though I go astray every now and then. So I do have a Monza painted up with the same colors. Thanks for the good words!!! Hilltop
Marty 11-22-2007, 01:39 PM MoPars make up the bulk of my collection. I'll start with my display cases and get to the race box after.

I'm sure many of you noticed the cars on JL pull back chassis. I assure you they are original Aurora and I use the JL chassis for display.

The display case is a Timex watch case I got at a drug store that was closing down. At first they did not want to sell it to me becasue it would blow fuses when plugged in. I convinced them I would not hold them liable. I repaired the pinched cord and it works fine. I paid $2.00 for it.

There is one of my rarest cars. The white/blue/red/orange #14 Dodge Magnum on a correct Super Magnatraction chassis. Rated a "0" in John Clarks guide.

You will see later I REALLY like these cars.
This is another Timex Watch case I have. The Motor turns but for some reason the columns don't. I'll check it out this winter.
On the other side are my AFX and TYCO Dodge Vans. I'll get pictures later.
Gotta go eat some turkey now!
Later,

These are all used but with the original cases. The yellow one in the front is stripped and ready for a repaint as soon as I find the red I like. The black one is someone elses repaint that I run a lot.

The #11 Charger was built back in the 70's. The numbers are all hand painted and the other lettering is Letraset Lettering. The other decals are from the parts box.

This one has posts glued in and sits on a T-Jet chassis with RRR wheels.
http://photos.hobbytalk.com/data/511/medium/DSC00023.JPG
This one WAS a Cuda Funny car. I sectioned it and turned it into a street "Cuda. This was done in the 70's and I wrote an article for a now defunct HO magazine.

The light blue one in front was purchased at the Richfield slot car show years ago. Someone took a T-Jet Charger and modified it into a Daytona.
Marty
Marty 11-22-2007, 09:07 PM These are the best detailed cars!! I love 'em!!
http://photos.hobbytalk.com/data/511/medium/DSC00030.JPG
Now where did that blue paint and #43 decals go?
Marty
Marty 11-22-2007, 09:09 PM http://photos.hobbytalk.com/data/511/medium/DSC000311.JPG
What I did not include in this picture are the six I have color coded to match the lane colors on my Tub Track. I use them when someone wants to see what this slot racing thing is about.
Marty
Marty 11-22-2007, 09:11 PM http://photos.hobbytalk.com/data/511/medium/DSC00032.JPG
The #43 is a resin I got off ebay.
My favorite one is the dark blue keychain conversion. It is the same color as my real car!

Here are a few Dodge pickups with one waiting for paint. These Dodge Econo Vans are done by Bruce Gavin and need to have the flashing removed still (I also have a white one that needs a good painting).
This Road Runner Banner covers the under stairs storage which, at this time has been cleaned out and ready for slot car cave storage some day. I plan on putting up some drywall around this banner and painting the little bit around it orange to match to finish off this small area in my cave. Beep, Beep!
Beep, Beep...zilla
T-jetjim 11-23-2007, 07:23 AM Marty - as I scrolled through all your Mopars, I was wondering if it might have been easier to show pictures of your cars that are not Dodge's? LOL Awesome collection plus an aweful lot of projects to go.
